Outfit Of The Day - Purple Again

OMG I'm am so stupidly busy this time of year and I have had zero time to plan new posts! So today we are doing another OOTD for Fashion Dreamer! I found it funny that the outfit I picked to post this week was another purple toned outfit. I must really love purple clothing items in Fashion Dreamer! I recall absolutely nothing about this outfit apart from I think they are items I designed myself, who knows? All I know is that it is cute and I'm incredibly run off my feet with work and stuff. Of course the outfit has many of my favourite items such as a plaid skirt and preppy vibes. Not that I would wear it this time of year here as the weather currently is very hot and looking towards the 40s the coming days. I wonder if Christmas day will end up being a hot one? Anyway enough weather talk and I hope you enjoyed this cute outfit from Fashion Dreamer.

Outfit Of The Day - Plaid & Pompoms

This was an outfit that I designed myself and I was pleased with the result. Thank heavens for the feature that allows you to use the same colour palette as it makes it a billion times easier to create outfits in the same colour scheme. This is an older look however I did wear it for ages as I loved it that much. It has many items that I adore and obsess over. Considering I made it myself, I clearly was inspired by my favourite items. Let's go through them; a skirt that is my favourite print plaid, the essential beret, collared shirt with a cute accessory, preppy style shoes with socks and a cardigan the finish the look off. I really do have a certain style when it comes to outfits in fashion games!

November Favourites

Did not even realise it was the end of November and I kept thinking there was 31 days in the month. The last two weeks have been crazy busy as the Black Friday sales here don't go for one day, we do it for way longer. So I've been busy at work with that and there are still more days to go! Haven't brought much myself in the sales besides the new hair dryer I will buy soon as mine is about the explode. Thinking about trying one of these new air style ones as they are better for your hair and look quite light to hold. Will update on which one I end up getting and what I think about it next month!

Gaming

I have played my Nintendo Switch quite a lot this month however it has kind of been a mix of games. Mainly I've been playing this cute game called Summer Paws where you find cats hidden across various locations. It is super adorable and relaxing! Only have a few levels to go before I finish it and one negative that I don't like about the game is the zoom feature. I wish you could zoom in more as it doesn't go in enough for me to see. There is a level where I cannot for the life of me find the final cat! I thought I found the last one yet the bar says there is one more to go. It frustrates me so much as I cannot figure out where they are hiding.

Been playing Fashion Dreamer mainly to just load into the game to clear out my likes. I do enjoy the game however I go through periods where I am bored with it and this seems to be one of those times. It is fun to make outfits and I'm slowing working on a new colour collection series in the game to post on the blog. That is always a fun activity and motivates me more to play the game.

MODEL debut3 #nicola Model Portfolio - Date Outfit

Time to share one of the photos from my model portfolio in MODEL debut3 #nicola and this one is called Date Outfit. Now I do not recall why on earth I called it this and it does not scream date night. Sometimes I find it hard to name stuff and I obviously just threw this one out in the world. The outfit is a mix between preppy and chic in my opinion. Some of the items remind me of Enid Chen such as the top and the skirt is very preppy coded. The hair is quite similar to my own except much shorter.

You can download this photo to your portfolio in MODEL debut3 #nicole with the ID Code br6T nG?- V4d8. If you require assistance in using this feature, you can check out my handy guide I made on downloading portraits in the game here! It doesn't matter which version of the game you are playing (Japanese or English) as the game is not region locked with the online. 

Fashion Dreamer Lookits Collection 7 - Photo Dump

OMG the last few weeks have been incredibly busy with work as it is the sale season. So I didn't have much time to checking on the blog and now that I have a spare moment, I'll post a new entry. Thought I would clear out some of the Lookits I have saved from Fashion Dreamer. Basically this post is a photo dump as it was the quickest and easiest thing to do. 

This collection of Lookits covers a wide range of styles and clothing items. The colour brown seems to be the overall theme overall which I liked as that is a nice colour for clothing. There was some hints of dark green as well which looks great as well. Thank you to everyone who gave me a beret and totally understood that I'm obsessed with them. Swear it is my most used item in Fashion Dreamer besides plaid skirts. I feel like most players gave me girly and casual inspired looks which is usually how my character is dressed. A few Lolita styled looks in there as well because they always show up in Lookits.

I've added notes to some of the Lookits and thought why haven't I been doing this in the other posts? It is way easier and you can tell which outfit I'm talking about. A big thank you to all the muses who dressed my character up! It is always exciting to get a new one and thank heavens for the events as that increases the amount you receive. I hope everyone is having a nice day and I'm back to work now as we still have one more week of Black Friday sales to go! Such a crazy time of year.

Such n adorable colour scheme

One of my top favourites and I would 100% totally wear this

A fun casual preppy look

Outfit Of The Day - A Favourite Of Mine

This dress design was one of the first styles I saw in Fashion Dreamer and I fell in love right away. It has such beautiful depth and volume to it plus it is animated perfectly. I have quite a number in my collection and for this outfit, I went with this lovely blue purple toned one. Love how I had shoes to match in the same colour! I've been trying to wear overall dresses more in real life but the straps always drive me insane. I just cannot get them perfect and sometimes it keeps sliding off my arm whilst wearing it at work. I have a cute denim one from Dotti and it is perfect as it has amazing pockets which you don't see in a lot of store brought dresses. For the photoshoot, I went for this cute looking background with lots of pastel tones. Also just have to point out in that last photo the awful clipping on the hair into my arm.

MODEL debut3 #nicola Play Journal - Jobs Galore

No fashion game can escape me from wearing a beret and this first outfit in today's MODEL debut3 #nicola play journal proves that. I just cannot help but choose berets for outfits as they always look amazing. Happened in Style Boutique, Fashion Dreamer and now MODEL debut3. This outfit turned out super cute and I loved the colour tones of it. Also how adorable is this teddy bear purse!?!?! It is so fluffy and I have to resist using it in every outfit from now on.

Outfit Of The Day - Fresh Spring Fun

Felt like going with a casual spring outfit for the today's outfit and I knew I wanted to use this particular t-shirt. It reminded me of a shirt I had years ago that I brought in Hong Kong and I loved how simple it looked. The print was very basic yet the shirt still felt vibrant. I paired it with a pair of denim shorts as I feel that is the perfect way to wear a shirt like this. Love how it isn't cropped as it is impossible to buy shirts that aren't cropped nowadays. Matched some cute earrings to the print on the shirt and the shoes were some colour sandals. I couldn't really decide on the shoes as the selection I had wasn't too amazing. These looked suitable thought and would be nice to wear on a warmer spring day.

MODEL debut3 #nicola Play Journal - New Clothing Brands Are Here

Time to power through these play journals for MODEL Debut3 #nicola because I am way behind on the blog compared to where I'm at in game. Pretty much going to post as many as possible until I catch up so I don't fall behind. This play journal has is starting at rank F however in real life I'm actually almost at rank C. So I'm going to focus on posting the journals for a little bit to reach that point. Anyway let's get going with this refreshing modelling job that I took part in. The outfit was super cute for this one and I love the hair colour! The background was nice at first however the photo was made a 100% better once I found this one that matches the fruit vibe more.

Later I visited a beauty store with Shunsuke and he made a great comment about lack of sleep. Dude I run off lack of sleep and I wish I could improve it. I brought a sleep mat early this year and whilst it is amazing, I hate seeing how bad my sleep patterns are. And now it will only get worst with all the super early starts I'll be doing for work along with long days. He means well I guess and my character cannot get dark circles haha. Perfect time for another Nicola App post!

MODEL debut3 #nicola Play Journal - New Jobs Unlocked!

Back with another MODEL debut3 #nicola play journal and I have lots of cool photo shoots to share in this one. First up is a look that combines khaki pants in a boyish style. Seemed like an easy job as pants are always a simply thing to choose. I thought a beanie would be a cool addition to this outfit and feels very boyish.

Spent some time talking to Narumi at a few places and she saved one of my items from disappearing in the wind. I really like her style and this hat suits her hairstyle well. She has some cool boyish image going on like the previous photo shoot theme.

October Favourites

OMG I was trying to hard this month to remember to post my monthly favourites as I have missed a few recently. It has been a crazy last few months for me however and it feels like it is slowly improving which is amazing. Plus the weather is getting a bit warmer however it is always crazy windy. My city was never a windy place but I feel like in recent years it has been super bad. I have just had two weeks off work for annual leave which was great! Loved just chilling out and not having to deal with stress constantly. Now I'm back and ready to take on the busy peak trade season over Christmas. Anyway let's get into the monthly favourites for October!

Gaming

I feel like most of my blog readers would already be aware that MODEL Debut3 #nicola got an English release this month which was crazy surprising! I totally wasn't expecting it and I thought it was funny as I had been playing the game quite a lot recently before was announced. Honestly I love the game and was happy to see it reach a wider audience. I will of course be posting lots of content about the game including a few guides that I've done recently. You can find them all on the MODEL Debut3 #nicola page here!

Music

This month I have been obssessed with the Japanese pop duo Wink who were active in the 1980's to 1990's. I was already aware of two of their songs 愛が止まらない Ai ga Tomaranai ~Turn It Into Love~ and 淋しい熱帯魚 Samishii Nettaigyo but had never really listened to anything else. So I randomly brought their best of on iTunes and I'm hooked! Absoutely amazing and so annoyed I left it this long! Why are there so many amazing Japanese groups from the 1990's? My current favourite songs are 夜にはぐれて Yoru ni Hagurete ~Where Were You Last Night~ and 真夏のトレモロ Manatsu no Tremolo. The first song caught my attention as I already knew the original song that they covered. So I was like hey I know this song!

Outfit Of The Day - Plaid Skirt Crazy

I swear like every outfit I create has a plaid skirt in it! Literally only just realised that and guess I'm obsessed with them. They just look so nice in Fashion Dreamer and the developers did an excellent job with programming them in the game. Like I loved using them in Style Boutique however they have so much more life and depth to them in this game. 

This look is a cute comfy outfit that mixes a bit of preppy and girly. More towards girly I feel as it feels quite sweet and soft looking. Love these over sized cardigans in Fashion Dreamer and I will use them in every single outfit. Of course I had to put on my favourite top with the little bow on the collar. Another top item of mine that gets constantly repeated. This hair is my style and I wish my bangs looked that good when I used to have them. Wispy bangs are impossible to perfect and thank heavens I can have them in the virtual world instead.
